CROP PRODUCTION 



Other Bulb Crops 



rotation is one of the best preventive measures for this 

 disease. 



The other Bulb Crops — Leeks, Chives, Shallots, and 

 Garlic — are of comparatively little importance in a 

 commercial way. Chives are very useful for the home 

 garden, the leaves furnishing excellent material for 

 seasoning and salads. Leeks, Shallots, and Garlic are 

 not in general demand in America, except in the larger 

 cities. The appearance of Garlic as placed on the 

 market is shown in the picture below.
